Should I buy a DD-20/DL4 today or wait for the Eventide Stompboxes?

[bchamorro]

That is the question.

[notubble]

im waiting for the Eventide stomp....i have used the H3000 so much in the studio that i cant wait for these....i own a DL4 and am gonna make the switch to Eventide if it really covers my stuff.....im expecting it to be kick ass...lets hope it truly is

[Enjoyer]

My advice . . . . .
WAIT

[drolling]

Yes! There's a whole whack of new delays (both analogue & digital) coming out this year. A quick search of the archives should turn up info on at least a half dozen or so.

I've already got some good'uns (and I'm waiting on a Toneczar Echoczar), but the Eventide's gonna be pretty hard to resist!!

[bchamorro]

What delays are coming out this year? And when are the Eventide stompboxes coming out?

[markom89]

dude! wait!

[Passenger84]

Get a DD-20 today, and when the Eventide comes out, if you like it better, hawk the DD-20 and put the money towards an Eventide.

See? It's a perfect plan.....well, not completely; I've just never been very good at waiting. :rolleyes:

the eventide looks really promising. i think the best part is that there are so many options and presets (unlimited with MIDI). Here's a link to gearwire.com that has some samples on how this thing sounds.

I think the release date is the middle of April, its top my of my shopping list to be sure!

Very curious about the rumored Eventide harmonizer stompbox... especially since I haven't gotten around to restoring my old H910 and the Boss HR-2 seems best suited for making strange quasi-ethereal noises...

I was at Tone Merchants two weeks ago and they said they are planning on getting theirs in TODAY!!! I haven't called them yet - I'm actually stuck at home sick. I really hope they hold on to a floor model so we can try them out while they get snapped up.

Any word on price?

[donbarzini]

MF has them listed for $399.00

Sounds great but is it worth it?. Maybe for recording but live?. Is it so great that the audience knows the difference or is it for the player?. Plus I hear u need a big power supply with a wall wort and you need an other pedal to control the amount of delay plus its 500 bucks. To me Delay is Delay when playing live. Its a subtle effect that enhances what im playing. Im sure the Eventide has better sounding quality efx but is it really worth the hype?. Thats up to you?

[frankybaby]

Whoa - time out - hold on. My bad, I guess I misunderstood when Tone Merchants were going to receive their shipment of Time Factors. I just called and Noel said he hopes late this month. I'm sorry for psyching anybody out - needless to say, I psyched myself out...

If only I didn't have a AD999 and I wasn't saving for a Matamp 1224 MKII, I would get that Eventide, looks like a good 'un.

I'm expecting to end up with the delay at the least. Maybe the mod too, if it sounds good enough to replace my Chorus and Flanger.
